A-Click Backup

The A-Click Backup program is a very simple to use program that takes a few moments to setup and then runs automatically in the background on your computer. At scheduled intervals it backs up selected files and folders to a remote storage facility after which you receive a full report of the backup job via email.

The first time that A-Click runs a backup, it uploads a full copy of your files and folders to the remote storage server. This may take a number of hours or even days to complete especially if you have a large amount of photos or music files on your computer. Once the initial backup has completed, subsequent backup jobs only upload the files that have changed (i.e. edited, deleted or moved) since the last backup was run. To save Internet bandwidth and time, large files over a certain size (e.g. 50 megabytes) aren't backed up in their entirety. Instead, clever techhnology is used to upload only the portion (datablocks) of the file that changed since the last backup. These portions are neatly downloaded and re-assembled into the original file if it is restored to your computer.

A-Click backup also has a 'Recycle Bin' where deleted files are stored for 7 days (this can be increased if required) to protect your data from accidental deletion from your computer. If, for example, you lost a folder on your computer and could not get it back from the Windows/Mac Recycle Bin, you could simply download it from the backup server.

I have only been using a computer for 2 years but it took me less than 10 minutes to setup my backup. That's how easy it was. I am now much less worried about the data I have filed away on my hard drive. Thanks guys!
